"Form follows profit is the aesthetic principle of our times." ― Richard Rogers Topic(s): Architecture More From Richard Rogers "My passion and great enjoyment for architecture, and the reason the older I get the more I enjoy it, is because I believe we – architects – can effect the quality of life of the people." "Of course I know very little about architecture, and the older I get the less I know." "The only way forward, if we are going to improve the quality of the environment, is to get everybody involved."

I saw the need to create a mixture of Japanese spiritual culture and modern western architecture."― Tadao Ando "The architecture of a story can be a little bit different if it’s a true story."― Joel Coen
